At the Echigo Yakuso Distillery, located adjacent to the Echigo Yakuso Head Office in Niigata Prefecture,
OPEN DAY is held on a limited date for the general public.
In 2025, Echigo Yakuso Distillery won a special award, the "Best Japanese Craft Gin Distillery Award" at the Tokyo Whiskey & Spirits Competition, one of the largest liquor competitions in Asia.
The factory is normally closed to the public, but will be open to the public on the Open Day.
In addition to a tour of the distillery, a workshop to experience the world of "THE HERBALIST YASO" will be held on the day of the event, where participants can try their hand at blending their own original gin.
Enjoy the special time of creating your own unique bottle, while taking a closer look at the fragrance and ingredients.
